Rory still can't say his r's, but that's just the beginning of his troubles. First Rory's ex-best-friend Brent started hanging out with the mean lacrosse kids. But then, a terrible accident takes Brent out of school, and Rory struggles with how to feel. Rory and his new speech teacher put their heads together on Rory's r's (as well as a serious love of hard rock and boxing legend Muhammad Ali), but nobody seems to be able to solve the problem of Rory's complicated feelings about Brent. Brent's accident left him with a brain injury and he's struggling. Should Rory stand up for his old friend at schooleven after Brent failed to do the same for him?"--Issued on Playaway, a dedicated audio media player.One set of earphones and one AAA battery required for listening.

Paradoxes of nostalgia : Cold War triumphalism and global disorder since 1989 / by Von Eschen, Penny M.(Penny Marie),author.(CARDINAL)859535;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 353-364) and index.The Ends of History -- Out of Order: discordant Triumphalism and the "Clash of Civilizations" -- Losing the Good Life: post-Cold War Malaise and the Enemy Within -- "God I Miss the Cold War": busted Containers and Popular Nostalgia 1993- -- Consuming Nostalgia: lampooning Lenin, Marketing Mao, and the Global Turn to the Right -- Patriot Acts: staging the War on Terror from the Spy Museum to Bishkek -- Spies R Us: paradoxes of U.S.-Russian Relations -- Nostalgia for the Future."In Paradoxes of Nostalgia Penny M. Von Eschen offers a sweeping examination of the Cold War's afterlife and the lingering shadows it casts over geopolitics, journalism, and popular culture. She shows how myriad forms of nostalgia across the globe-from those that posit a mythic national past to those critical of neoliberalism that remember a time when people believed in the possibility of a collective good-indelibly shape the post-cold war era. When Western triumphalism moved into global South and former eastern bloc spaces, many articulated a powerful sense of loss and a longing for stability. Innovatively bringing together diplomatic archives, museums, films, and video games, Von Eschen shows that as the United States continuously sought new enemies for its unipolar world, Cold War triumphalism fueled the ascendancy of xenophobic right-wing nationalism and the embrace of authoritarian sensibilities in the United States and beyond. Ultimately, she demonstrates that triumphalist claims that capitalism and military might won the cold war distort the past and disfigure the present, undermining democratic values and institutions"--
